4-3-39 Baeria aristata Cov. J 1113; M 561 Early fl. Soledad.
Exacty as desc. Has few small disks flo very glandular on
outside Pappus lacking [5-10-39 Fls. Pony Grade. Pappus very
distinctly scales almost fimbriate at top but not "tap-
ering into awns" (M J T)
linearifolia
4-3-39 Uropappus linearifolius Nutt J 992 = Microseris,
brown, Schultz. M 586 Fl. Soledad. Exactly as desc. for v
ill as far as evident at f.s. but might be U. lindleyae Nutt
= M.-Gray.
(A) Scapes 6" tall. Heads 2 cm from base to tip group. Rays
pale flesh-yellow. Pappus 10-11mm overall (of which scales is
7mm). 30 spec. of this col. [See 4-24-39
(B) Scape 2½ in tall. Head 13mm from base to tip group. Rays def. yel-
low. Pappus 6mm over-all (of which scale is 2mm). Only 10 spec.

4-3-39 ??? Lomation dasy carpum C.V.R. 722; M 359
(See 3-9-39) Fl vadv. fl. Soledad. Same difficulty as 3-9 in
that petals are yellowish green, certainly not "white"
(Should not be L. articulatum C.V.R since bracts of involucelo
are "narrow x lanceolate" not "broad rounded to blunt
and frs" pubescent" not "glabrous".
Oldest fls. now 7mm long, def flattens wings; wings pear-
pish. [5-25-39 Fls at Inspiration Point. Almost surely
same as the very fine thick blade of spec with lighter
coloured tips (conspicuously like spore cases of some ferns
the flowering far from flat give plant a peculiar look.
Petals as in 4-3-39.
